Parting with my Amuse exhaust
Yep, I made a decision and although the Amuse single R1 Titan is an awesome piece of craftsmanship it's just too loud for my tastes now. I guess I'm maturing more.
The new exhaust should arrive today from King Motorsports and I plan on doing the work myself.
Also, the baby, Mandy, and I are doing fine. I'm off from work until the 11'th of July so I can get some things done too.
More to follow.

It was many years ago I drove an AP1 with the Mugen, although I did not like the tips they had at the time the sound was very nice.
At 140 kph, about 85 mph the loudest noise in the car was the wind, normal street driving left you a cockpit where you could talk, not shout to your passenger, but, when you got on it and pushed up the revs, it really woke up. After deciding I was not going to spend the money on a Supersprint the Mugen was the next option for me, but their tips, at the time were just a no way kind of thing for me.
Congrats, I suspect you will love it Jeremy.

Yep this is just an FYI thread right now.
I have 2 potential prospects from Canada that showed interest about the Amuse. But haven't heard from them in a while. So I will be putting the exhaust up for sale on here shortly.

Just received the exhaust this afternoon and it's amazing looking. The tips weren't cut like I thought they were advertised but on a plus side the unit weighs in at 25 pounds.
Gonna miss the 7 pounds the Amuse weighed in at.
Will have photos on here hopefully by this weekend.

This is what it looks like installed.

I noticed that the driver-side sags down and I have remedied the issue and although it helps, it still doesn't appear right. But these photos were taken before the fix.
